Xenitidou, Maria Greco Morasso, Sara 2014 This article integrates discursive psychology and argumentation studies to discuss the regularities identified in two sets of data – focus group discussions amongst indigenous Greeks residing in Central Northern Greece and interviews with non-indigenous women with children, resident in the greater London area. The initial regularity identified consisted of participants talking as parents and talking about children mobilizing the normative expectations of parenthood in voicing strong views about ‘others’ from ethnic, cultural and racial backgrounds other than those of the speakers. This seemed to function as a form of denial, identifying further regularities in the discursive strategies used by participants and in the lines of arguments developed. Furthermore, two themes emerged as commonplace in talking about ‘others’ in the lines of argument developed by participants – security/insecurity and hierarchies. These regularities are considered and the potentials of analysing discourse from two integrated approaches are discussed. application/pdf https://localhost:5000/ark:/12658/srd1318434 https://susi.usi.ch/global/documents/318434 https://susi.usi.ch/documents/318434/files/GrecoMorasso_DS_2014.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1177/0957926513508858 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/ark/12658/srd1318434 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Discourse & society. - Sage. - 2014, vol. 25, no. 1, p. 100-121 Discursive psychology argumentation studies identity migration otherness strong views denial parenthood Greece UK info:eu-repo/classification/udc/65 Parental discourse and identity management in the talk of indigenous and migrant speakers http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
